    Question

    David Lopes of New Street Research asked about the impact of the Nine Mobile and MTN roaming agreement in Nigeria, the status of cash upstreaming from Nigeria in H1, and the outlook for finance costs following recent debt repayments.

    Answer

    EVP & CFO Steve Howden stated the roaming agreement's impact is immaterial and included in guidance. He confirmed $158 million was upstreamed from Nigeria in H1, with the process continuing. He noted that repaying high-cost debt in Nigeria and Brazil lowered the blended interest rate to 8.3% and that the next focus is optimizing U.S. dollar debt.
